I've been on a heavy country kick lately so I've been listening to Bill Anderson:Whispering Bill Anderson's Greatest Hits. My favorite song off the album so far is Bright Lights And Country Music.

right now i'm listening to a group called nightwish. They are a symphonic metal group from finland with a hot lead singer names tarja. The most impressive thing is that the next to last track is a cover of "phantom of the opera" and thats from the musical not the iron maiden song :shock:

Listening to a Finnish band here, too - Laika and the Cosmonauts. How to describe? Kinda instrumental ambient surf rock... It's very much in the background though, as I am at work.

Update on what I'm listening to now. This past weekend, I've been listening live albums and greatest hits albums by Jackson Browne, AC/DC, and Jimmy Buffett plus many others.

So I started thinking about some great albums today. I knew I had one so I popped it in. This one is Puddle of Mudd's Come Clean. Man, I forgot how good "Drift & Die" was!

My 'write to THIS!' music changes about every 3 to 4 weeks. At the moment it's the theme to the new Battlestar Galactica. Everything about that show leaves me breathless, especially the taiko drums of that track through my $2000 (it was a gift) Bose system when the neighbors are gone or gagged. It's something ya just gotta feel.

Taiko kicks assests to write short ubergirls stories to. The rhythm patterns lead to abrupt, jarring story flow.

Before that it was "Rise", from the Ghost in the Shell 2nd Gig soundtrack.

Before that it was "Desert Rose", club remix, by Sting.

There was some Enigma in there too a while back.

Carmina Buranna kicks Conan-sized rear (speakers) too. I think I wrote some of my earlier stuff to that.

Metalica S&M fueled my imagination for several months back when some unsuspecting librarian slipped me THAT disk.

I've written to several classical tracks. Creig, Chopin, etc.

Overall, I look for a sound with power, drive, energy, and passion---sweepingly orchestrated, and a beat you can dance to. Pretty much how you'd imagine experiencing an ubergirl in bed.

Country music? Haven't tried writing to that yet. Sounds like the makings of something silly.

I try not to write stories you can't dance to.

Write on.

So...what'd YOU write to?

Love,
White Paw

My musical tastes are all over the place...i'm heavily into Alison Krauss & Union Station...I just bought the Live DVD and the album "Lonely Runs Both Ways"....great easy listening.....I'm also listening to Saliva and recently got into Disturbed. Last album I actually bought was REM's greatest hits album. As for writing music, the one album that always got me to relax and think was Enya's "Paint The Sky With Stars"

Manu Chao. Saw him live a while back. Great gig it was, too.

For the unitiated, I'd recommend the title track of his first solo album "Clandestino" If you don't like that track, don't bother going any further...

My tastes are more classical. Here's one of the songs Velvet and I used for our wedding CD*:

brightempire.com/Melodia.mp3

It's also James and Bidu's song in "Terms of Enhancement," as explained in an appendix to that story.

* Of course, we also used some pop classics like "Love Me Tender" and "Thee I Love," plus show tunes like "So In Love with You am I" and "Speak Low."

Just remembered I had the Junior Brown album Guit With It here so the track I'm on is Guit-Steel Blues. I've always thought that guit-steel of his is the coolest and most unique instrument ever.

Things sound different through rose-colored 's... :twisted:

Freight Train Snooze Alarm

“Woke up this morning.
Got myself redone.
Mama always said I’d be the
Chosen One

One in the zillion.
Got that yearn to shine
I was born under a red sign
That rose shine in my eyes.

Woke up this morning
All the love was gone
Papa never told you
How your right is wrong

You’re looking good baby
You were feeling fine (shame about it)
Born under a red sign
Blue moons in your eyes

Woke up this morning
Turned world upside down
Fools ain’t been the same
Since my blues walked into town

Woke up this morning
Got yourself a gun (shame about it)
One with the shotgun pump
It was two on one.

When you woke up this morning the old me was gone. By half past ten your head was going ding-dong. Ringing like a bell from your head down to your toes, like a voice telling you there was something you should know. Last night we were flying but today you’re so slow—ain’t it times like these that make you wonder if you’ll ever know the meaning of things as they appear to the others; wives, mothers, fathers, sisters and brothers. Don’t you wish you didn’t function? Wish you didn’t think beyond the next paycheck and the next little drink? Well you do so make up your mind to go on, ‘cus when you woke up this morning everything I am was gone.

Woke up this morning
Left a dream in your head (shame about it)
Woke up this morning
Wishing you were dead.

I’m that one in a zillion
I’ve got that shotgun shined
Sent from above
Ms. heat in love”

-White Paw.

To the tune of “Woke up This Morning”--Alabama , current soundtrack to "The Sopranos" . No, I'm not a fan. I've never watched an episode. Us genuine wise's knows the tune's debut from Christopher Walken 's limo scene in Abel Ferrara 's " The King of New York ", 1990.

Yeah. I'm postmodern neo-old school urban twice revival'd street... thug. The old school's dirt ain't new no more and the new school's sold out on options already.

<And whoever lipped I mouth 'baby talk's gota nutha' thin' comin'--very thin.;)>

And now for something completely different: a wild Mexican piece played by the National Youth Orchestra of Venezuela.



Members of the orchestra -- including the conductor -- were recruited as children from Venezuela's worst slums by an idealist who thought he could save them from a life of poverty and crime by teaching them to love and play music. The orchestra takes the very best, of course, but there are tens of thousands of others leading decent and productive lives today, even if they didn't become professional musicians.
